Can’t wait to plug this into Torvik’s RosterCast.
I don’t think his injury was career-ending.
I think so. As I understand it he gets a free COVID 5th year but then can take a medical redshirt for a 6th year. I haven’t heard that he (TWill) has other plans that returning to USC.
Pretty solid team in there: good guards and a good center. If Walters and TWill could be solid at the forwards, I think that would be a NCAA team.
Yulia Grabovskaia winds up at Washington.
McDaniel: (KSU → Memphis)
Collins (M - ASU - TCU - Vanderbilt)
Jackson (last I heard trying for another year at VCU)
Glenn (Tulane)
Williams III (USC)
Reed (UConn)
Barnes (Tulsa - Valpo)
Kayat (Bowling Green)
Washington (M to Richmond now back to portal)
Donaldson (Miami)
Howard (Fordham)
Walters (MSU, oops, SMU)
Pippen (Cal)
Phat Phat
did Zeb commit to Beilein?
Yep.

Didn’t even know Barnes was in the portal!
Dug to Memphis
Kind of a slow day around here and so I thought I would post the current list with the recent updates:
McDaniel: (KSU → Memphis)
Collins (M - ASU - TCU - Vanderbilt)
Jackson (last I heard trying for another year at VCU)
Glenn (Tulane)
Williams III (USC)
Reed (UConn)
Barnes (Tulsa - Valpo)
Kayat (Bowling Green)
Washington (M to Richmond to FGCU)
Donaldson (Miami)
Howard (Fordham)
Walters (MSU, oops, SMU)
Pippen (Cal)

And only about 5 of those guys will be in college next year righ?!
EDIT— I meant “next year” as not coming season—where you clearly said where they are playing… my comment is so many former UM guys this coming season and I’m guessing very few of them will still be in college in 2 yrs. Sorry for confusion
Will Hunter go to Portsmouth or Combine? Does he have ANY NBA juice?
I used to look at the bench centers in the NBA and list off the ones that would justify him having a chance. Even Luka Garza is still hanging around!
But after watching Hunter for another couple of years be the same guy…nope. And it doesn’t even seem like he is into it - probably will do media stuff.
He would be better off going overseas where he’ll be more valuable down low but I don’t know if his personality would fit with teams from the overseas.
Hah. Yes. I was just admiring Alex Len is on a (short-lived) Playoff roster. DNP-CD of course but the check still cashed!
Perhaps I’m missing the sarcasm here but I think all on the list will be playing college basketball next season except for maybe Jackson and Kayat.
I do sarcasm here at times but actually was serious this time—thinking these guys either exhaust eligibility/go pro/go home with only likely college returnees: Washington, Donaldson, Walters, Pippen, Phat2
Don’t need to look up what year they are necessarily, maybe just my impression they are older and/or better or worse than they actually are.
